Inhaltsangabe
When Robin was a boy, fishing with his father was an integral and much-loved part of family holidays, but as an adult he fished infrequently, with terrible technique and rare success. Until one day, feeling inspired to supplement the vegetables from his allotment with nature's free bounty, fish, he tentatively decided to try again. Full of dizzy excitement at all the equipment available - the rods, the reels, the rigs, the lures, the tackle box complete with light in its lid, into which everything packed so beautifully - he embarked on his journey as a born-again angler.
What follows is a funny, touching and even informative book about Britain's most popular sport. From beachcasting off the stormy Pembrokeshire coast to flyfishing for trout in tranquil Hertfordshire, Robin shares his experiences, his successes and failures, and even some of his favourite recipes. Along the way he discovers exactly why anglers feel so passionate about their chosen sport.

Zustand: new. ALL UK PARCELS SENT TRACKED! ALL OVERSEAS PARCELS SENT AIRMAIL, TRACKED! (S/hand, Hardcover, 2008). 2008 1st edition. Small 8vo (132 x 205mm). Ppxiv,274. Teal boards, spine titled in silver gilt. Unobtrusively bumped. Good-plus in slightly torn dust-wrapper. "When [the author] was a boy, fishing with his father was an integral part of family holidays, but as an adult he fished infrequently, with terrible technique and rare success. Until one day, feeling inspired to supplement the vegetables from his allotment with fish, he decided to try again." The author meets with new success and discovers exactly what he had been missing. A humorous account of the author's experiences, with a number of fish recipes thrown in at intervals. "Too many 'readable' books about fishing are written for the US market, or for fly fishermen, or for nostalgic, sentimental dreamers. Here is a refreshing change from that: a book written in the UK about good honest sea angling with only a bit of trout fishing sneaking in at the end. It even starts with an account of fly fishing for bass from a kayak - how contemporary is that for goodness sake? Written by a guy who thinks like we should be thinking but writes it down a lot better than most, this book will have you laughing, pondering, reminiscing and vowing to go fishing again. [It will] have experienced anglers nodding sagely and non-anglers following every word. Quite a talent. Anyone who elegantly refers to his dog as Charley-merde-tete can't be at all bad. He can cook too." Neville Merritt. . Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 64306
